Modi govt proposes to raise OBC creamy layer income limit to Rs 12 lakh per annum
The Narendra Modi government has recommended raising the income ceiling for the creamy layer of other backward classes (OBCs) from Rs 8 lakh to Rs 12 lakh per annum, ThePrint has learnt.

This means that if a household’s annual income is over Rs 12 lakh per annum, it will be ineligible for caste-based reservation in government jobs and admission to government-funded educational institutions under the OBC category.
According to two senior officials, the move has come after a government-appointed committee, to examine issues related to creamy layer equivalence among the socially and educationally backward classes (SEBCs), made two major recommendations.

In its report submitted on 19 September 2019, the committee proposed to include salaries in counting the gross annual income for determining the OBC creamy layer, and to raise the income ceiling from the present Rs 8 lakh.

It also proposed to include households with landholdings of over 10 hectares, of which at least 4 hectares is under irrigation, in the creamy layer.
